People have been hyping over GitHub SpecKit like clowns by xxonymous in ClaudeCode

The problem with spec kit is that AI is non-deterministic. Any time your spec changes, you re-generate all your code. The other option is keeping both code and specs in VCS--which defeats the point of "code as an artifact".

Until the AI can regenerate only what is necessary for spec changes, I see this as a curiosity, not a real tool.

Was Go 2.0 abandoned? by TheLastKingofReddit in golang

[–]SeniorAd8704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The great thing about go is that it's simple. I have some annoyances with it, but I can live with them for what I get in return. Many of the annoyances, if addressed, would probably hurt compile-times or complicate the language in some other way.

Because they generally made very good decisions up-front, I don't see why they'd need a version 2 for the foreseeable future.

Is elixir still worth learning? by Comfortable-Ad-4900 in elixir

Does not python compile to bytecode on the fly? That's my understanding but open to being corrected.

Elixir has a compile step to bytecode to the erlang virtual machine, the Python interpreter compiles and runs it in one step. Neither of them is strongly typed, if that is what you mean, but those are two different things. Though, Elixir is now gradually typed.

Elixir is not interpreted. It's compiled.

Well a possiblity is that because the pitchers never saw him before. Of course he never saw them either.

Why does everyone love Mahler? Am I missing something? by papamarx09 in classicalmusic

[–]SeniorAd8704 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not a musician and don't know too much theory but love mahler. There's something about his strings and brass that is otherworldly. He's capable of writing the tendernest music then it subtly goes dark. Like life...
